Title A charcoal sampling method and a gas chromatographic analytical procedure for carbon disulfide.
Bibliographic information Aug. 1975, Vol.36, No.8, p.618-625. Illus. 8 ref.
Abstract A test method for sampling and analysing samples for carbon disulfide (CS2) is described. CS2 was adsorbed on charcoal tubes, eluted with benzene, and determined with a gas chromatograph equipped with a sulfur flame photometric detector. The sensitivity of the method was 1µg. The tubes were also tested for breakthrough volumes, sample stability, and the effect of air transport and temperature changes.
